A third Gastonia resident has been charged with attempted murder in a neighborhood shooting.

Gastonia Police say not only did Cameron Jetur Robinson, 21, try to kill 23-year-old Kings Mountain resident Keymar Hemphill, but that he led police on a 90-mph chase on U.S. 321 South in his attempt to escape.

The incident occurred Aug. 27, and Robinson was arrested on Monday. Two other men, Andrew Maynor and Justus Grant, had been arrested the day of the shooting.

During the pursuit, police said the suspects stopped the vehicle and fled on foot.
